FARM NOTES

PRESERVING EGGS.-At the En-
mippham Poultry Show, England,
prizes were offered for the best dozen
preserved eggs that had been Kept two
months. The eggs were tested by
breaking one of each SEE competing
for the prlze into a clear saucer; also
by boiling one of each lot. The eggs
that had been preserved in lime water,
IT was found on breaking them, pre-.
sented cloudy whites. Eggs preserved
by rubbing over with beeswax and oil
showed thin, waiery whites. Eggs that
stood best test of boiling, and which
gained the first prize, had been simply
packed in common salt. These had
lost little if any by evaporation, mad
good, consistent alDumen, and were
pleasant to the taste. The exhibit which
took the second prize was scarcely IN
ferior in quality. These were preser-
ved as follows: Melt one part OF white
wax to two parts of spermaceti; Doll
and mix thoroughly or, two parts
clarified suet to one of wax and one OF
spermaceti. Take new-laid eggs rub
with antlseptic salt or fine rice starch.
Wrap each egg in fine tissue paper,
putting the broad edge downward;
screw the paper lightly at ths top,
leaving an inch to hold it BY. Dip
each egg rapidly into the fat heated to
1902. Withdraw and leave to cool.
Pack broad end downward In dry,
white sand or sawdust. The judges
were inclined to believe that had the
trial been for a longer period than two
months this latter method would per-
haps have proven the better OF the two.
The eggs were excellent, and on strip
ping off the waxed paper the shells
presented the clean, fresh appearance
of newly-lald eggs.
